| Description of the problem | A few weeks ago the right rear door latch failed and had to be replaced (the door would not stay shut, while parked or during vehicle operation). Today the front right (passenger side) door latch also failed. Same exact issue. This is extremely dangerous as someone could fall out of the car during operation. ***note: we also had this exact issue on a ford fiesta owned by another family member, i'm guessing it the part is the same part or has the same manufacturer*** extremely dangerous. |
